Alanna and Megan Jones

Alanna and Megan Jones

Sisters Alanna and Megan Jones, 9 and 7 , have worked hard to make the world a better place throughout their young lives. Community service and volunteering have always been a part of their lives. They support many local organizations in creative ways, including donating clothes and toys to Homeless Gear, making dog toys for Larimer Humane Society and organizing books for the Bright Red Bookshelf. Their selfless attitudes set an example for other children in the community to get involved and make a difference. The Jones sisters may be young, but their positive and caring personalities are contagious for all ages.

United Way of Larimer County is in partnership with the Coloradoan to spotlight a community volunteer each Friday on the cover of the Causes section. If you would like to see a volunteer from your organization in a Volunteer Spotlight, please submit a brief narrative (no more than 750 typed words) and a photograph of the volunteer to marketingle@uwaylc.org. The narrative should include the impact the volunteer has on specific organizations, its clients and/or the community, along with a description of the volunteer's sense of responsibility, dedication and character.
